Not too late
No doubt people are thinking "This looks good, wish I'd got this organised". It's not too late! 2 years ago, I decided to go on the monday before the AR, from a different country :smt080 And last year, I binned the bike the weekend before and had to spend the next 4 days frantically hitting it with a hammer, finding and making new parts, and respraying the whole front end, the bike went back together at 1am on the friday morning, we left at 9am :cool:
In fact, this year I'm going, but I don't seem to have organised anything! So, you're no worse off than me, in fact, chances are you're coming from closer. So, don't think "It's too late", because if you do then soon it will be. But not yet. That is all. |
Re: Not too late
Well said mate. Looking forward to seeing you again.
And to everyone reading this who thinks it's too far, it's a fair old trek for me, but Northy's got some real distance to cover. So don't be a big bunch of wussies... make some effort. |
Re: Not too late
I have a massive distance to cover
all of 30 mins max |

Re: Not too late
Last year Sparkly Girl (Anna) wasn't going as she had a busted bike and couldn't get the time off anyway (much like this year :( ) two days before she found out she could get the time off, the bike was repaired (about two weeks normal work) in 48 hours (admittedly with a couple of semi-pro botches) and didn't miss a beat all weekend, think it was a cat C write off.
so as Andy says, never to much or to later, anything is possible (well OK if before Wednesday :cool: ). Cheers Mark. |

Re: Not too late
Last year I finally got the SV (Now stolen) fixed on the Thursday afternoon.
I used the work bike to ride to Bristol to get a set of calipers from www.svspares.com, rode back to Crystal Palace, fixed them on, left the work bike at CP and rode the SV back home to Staines (About 8pm), packed a bag, slept and was at the Ace for 8am!! The shakedown run was The Ace to the campsite! |
